Content DescriptionThis document specifies requirements and gives recommendations on the handling, storage, CTC enrichment and isolation, DNA isolation and storage, and documentation of venous whole blood specimens intended for the examination of DNA isolated from circulating tumour cells (CTCs) during the pre-examination phase before a molecular examination is performed. This document is applicable to molecular in vitro diagnostic examinations including laboratory developed tests performed by medical laboratories. It is also intended to be used by laboratory customers, in vitro diagnostics developers and manufacturers, biobanks, institutions, and commercial organizations performing biomedical research, and regulatory authorities. This document does not cover the isolation of genomic DNA directly from venous whole blood containing CTCs. This is covered in ISO 20186-2. This document does not cover the isolation of specific white blood cells and subsequent isolation of genomic DNA therefrom or the pre-analytical workflow requirements for viable CTC cryopreservation and culturing. NOTEÂ 1Â Â Â Â Â Â Â The requirements given in this document can also be applied to other circulating rare cells (e.g. foetal cells). NOTEÂ 2Â Â Â Â Â Â Â International, national, or regional regulations or requirements can also apply to specific topics covered in this document. About ISOISO, the International Organization for Standardization, brings global experts together to agree on the best way of doing things – for anything from making a product to managing a process. As one of the oldest non-governmental international organizations, ISO has enabled trade and cooperation between people and companies all over the world since 1946. The International Standards published by ISO serve to make lives easier, safer and better. |
